Caesar's 5th Cohort Division: Battle of Reno Valley Basin

It looks like it may take me a bit longer to finish the Legion side of this mod. Sorry. I'm super busy, coming up with strategies to make the campaigns cooler, and personally, Oznog99 kinda shot down my inspiration for now to keep working (you bastard). I don't know how long it'll take now.

I am pleased to announce that I am currently working on the Legion version of this mod! It will also have a bit more complex or a storyline than the NCR side of the quest, possibly making it even more exciting.

UPDATES HAVE ARRIVED!
Alright. I have added the new additions to the mod and they are ready to go! It has added:
-two quests to build up to the main NCR quest
-an NCR Field Hospital with a small side quest with it. You'll need a pretty high medicine skill to do it though.
-an NCR supplies vendor in the HQ. He has crap loads of ammo to sell.
-Note that both vendors have 0 caps to sell to. I did this so that they were solely for buying supplies.
-an extra hidden valley for hunting
-an empty valley that will be filled in the next plugin
-extra clutter around the area

Before I even begin talking about my mod, I wanna give a huge applause to Skevitj, because he greatly helped me out with compiling scripts and helping me work out bugs with this mod. THANK YOU!

NOTE: I am willing to hear constructive criticism, but as long as you have downloaded it first and played it through. Don't come to my mod and criticize it if you haven't even played it.

Before you leave any comments, please read this section, because it may answer the majority of your questions.

This mod adds a new world space that you can travel to along with a massive battle quest you can take part in. This mod is very difficult, and I would recommend you to be at least level 25 before going in, or have a massive inventory of powerful weapons.

Storyline: Shortly after the Battle of Hoover Dam, Caesar realized he would need more than sheer manpower to overun the NCR in the Mojave Wasteland. So almost immediatley after defeat, he ordered Praefectus Aelius to take one of his six cohorts to navigate behind the NCR's lines, into the Reno Valley Basin. Praefectus Aelius took with him the Fifth Cohort, Caesar's most disciplined, organized, wealthy, and lethal division, to complete this operation. Only recently, an NCR scouting party had picked up their presence. Their response was immediate and swift. They sent over a platoon to hold down the perimeter until more forces were able to prevent the sneak attack by Aelius.

Location: The entrance to it is south of Jacobstown. To begin the quest, just talk to the NCR trooeprs.

This mod adds:
-A whole new world space that you can explore and fight in alongside the NCR against the massive forces of the Legion
-A quest that includes the Battle of Reno Valley Basin. The mission involves lots of killing and presents you a set of tactical choices to help you beat back the Legion. Choose between reinforcements, artillery strikes, gunship supports, or extra troops to help you fight the battle!
-Two NCR bases and two Legion bases for plenty of killing

-New Legion Forces:
Legion Deathclaw: Self explanatory
Optius Legionary: Low health (recruit health) but packs massive weapons
Saggitarius Legionary: Medium health, carries a sniper rifle
Imagniferus Legionary: Kind of like a more powerful Vexallarius, but actually affects Legion confidence around them if they die
Senior Legion Centurion: A Legion Centurion on steroids. Massive health, massive damage, but only two of them

-New Weapons (no new meshes for them though)
Machete Dimicatio: (Between normal machete and machete gladius in strength and damage)
Machete Compretus: (Massive damage, greater reach, but less health than a machete gladius)
Claymore: heavy, massive damage, chance of knockdown with each strike
Service Rifle Mark II: Fully automatic service rifle. Has medium fire rate with base damage


-Your own house outside the fray hidden in the valley.
Your house has:
-vending machine (put in money to get special processed foods)
-medical dispenser (put in money to get medical supplies)
-cooking oven, which works like a campfire
-Bedroom, with lots of posters, including two Marilyn Monroe posters (felt like a good Pre-War poster, considering everything looks like it's from the late 40's and 50's.)
-two weapon/armor rooms
-Reloading Bench along with a Workbench
-LOTS of containers

-A secondary valley that has no Legion or NCR forces, but has an abundance of Bighorners and Fire Geckos in it. Perfect for laid back hunting.

Notes:

-I know a bunch of you were going to ask this:
YES I WILL BUILD A LEGION VERSION OF THIS QUEST! I JUST WANTED TO SEE HOW SUCCESSFUL THE NCR PART OF THE MISSION WILL BE. THIS MOD'S SUCCESS WILL DETERMINE IF I MAKE THE LEGION MISSION FOR IT
YES I WILL EXPAND THE RENO VALLEY BASIN EVEN MORE! IT WILL GO FROM MASSIVE TO UBER MASSVE!! I WILL BUILD ON BASED ON THE SUCCESS OF THIS MOD.

-During the massive battle, I have made a few scripts to help it run better, but you will still need to minimize the amount of stuff running on your computer to help it run even better. You're going to be fighting more than a hundred legionaries inside that base. You'll need every bit of power you can.
-However, if you still see anything wrong with my mod (walls missing, floating trees, rocks) send me a message and I will fix them.

Installation Procedure:

Unpack the file out of the Winrar folder into your Fallout NV directory.

For unpacking meshes and textures:

If you have BSA Commander:
Not downloaded: Just put the entire folders into your Fallout NV directory
DOwnloaded: You'll have to take the meshes and textures only NOT THE FOLDERS WITH THEM, and put them in their appropirate folders. (i.e, meshes/clutter/posters, textures/clutter/posters)
